Socceroos to play last friendly in Oz vs South Africa

Postby Stuckey Thu Feb 06, 2014 1:21 pm

SOUTH Africa has emerged as another potential opponent for the Socceroos' send-off game in May, as Football Federation Australia looks to pin down its exact itinerary leading into the World Cup.

After reports emerged in the South African media this morning that the team known as Bafana Bafana was being lined up by Australia, it's understood the African side is an option for the game to be played on May 25 or 26 but nothing has yet been agreed.

A pretty underwhelming opponent for a game which for the past 8 years has been a genuinely big event.

Not necessarily talking about their quality (I've no idea about that at the moment) but their 'star' factor is virtually non-existent.

Wasn't it just NZ last time? Obviously the rivalry is big, but other then that.

Yep, you know you're right. And I take it back.

For some reason I had it in my mind it was Argentina.
